About Python-SDK: 
For all interfaces with is_radian, the default value of is_radian is the 
value at the time of instantiation. 
That is, the value of “ is_radian” set when xArmAPI () is created. 
Here are three examples to illustrate: 
1. arm = xArmAPI('192.168.1.226',) 
2. arm = xArmAPI('192.168.1.226', is_radian=False) 
3. arm = xArmAPI('192.168.1.226', is_radian=True) 
When the xArmAPI() interface is created in method 1, the default value of is_radian is False, the unit 
is °; 
When the xArmAPI() interface is created in method 2, is_radian = False, the unit is °; 
When the xArmAPI() interface is created in method 3, is_radian = True, the unit is rad ; 
About Blockly: 
All units for angles use degrees (°).
